Overall really good experience from start to finish. Mr Gummerson was really clear in his explanation and expectations.
Mr Gummerson has made the whole process hassle free. He always explains everything very well and there is not anyone else I would trust. He is a credit to his profession.
Mr Gummerson provided an excellent service, I couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable and comforting surgeon and my results are fantastic after only 6 weeks.
My recent steroid injection was a success! Many thanks to Mr Gummerson for looking after me so well
Straight forward explaining what the issue is and what needs to be done to rectify it. Broke everything down so I could understand the procedure. Very friendly and efficient.
Friendly, patient lovely consultant giving a clear explanation of my procedure. Talks through everything which could help my back pain and made me feel a lot happier about a solution of nerve root blocks. Which fingers crossed have worked!. I would highly recommend Mr Gummerson and would not hesitate to return should I experience any further back pain issues.
Excellent, explained everything left me with no unanswered questions, procedure we very well so perfect experience from start to finish.
Mr Gummerson was friendly and approachable. He took the time to explain my treatment plan and answer my questions.
